@abc7chicago: Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker is pushing for tougher regulations on data centers in the state. ⠀ He's calling on lawmakers to pass the Power Act. ⠀ The measure didn't make it out of the spring legislative session. ⠀ It would place environmental, energy, and water regulations on data centers in Illinois. ⠀ Pritzker says the restrictions are needed to protect people from higher energy costs. ⠀ Pritzker’s comments come after Mayor Brandon Johnson proposed a data center moratorium for the City of Chicago. Other Chicago-area communities have taken similar action. #news #illinois #chicagonews #datacenter #datacenters #jbpritzker

these two want illinois to bend over and put data centers in your area. Remember, Trump wants them snd has told us that anyone not wanting them, we are stupid and we eould be poor snd Bailey agrees.

How about we have stricter regulation on property taxes first before you worry about something that’s actually making money for the state.

He doesn’t want anyone’s power bill to go up because that’s money he can tax us on later for something else
